Ideation 8,216 Posted May 4, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Cheers everyone. I forgot to say, we named her 'Belle' Quote Link to post
DogMagic 461 Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 Defo collie grey with a bit of bull. Not sure about whippet but maybe. By what youve said about its rate of growth and the pic of its knuckles i reckon 25 - 26 inches fully grown mate. Cracking lookin dog, you and your mates done a good job. Quote Link to post
bird 9,872 Posted May 4, 2011 Report Share Posted May 4, 2011 have seen some colliex with nice strong heads but looks like a bit of bull in there somewhere, well done to your mate for taking her in and getting her back on her feet Quote Link to post

Guest storm70 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Good result lad all the best way her Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,070 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 as lurcher330 points out, milk teeth, are lost around 5 month old, and usualy by 7 month they have all there adult nashers. so if you know when he lost those teeth you will have a good idea of his age. whatever is in the make up,,its nice to here of a good outcome for a dumped dog Quote Link to post
ryan_ashworth 0 Posted May 5, 2011 Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 So, one evening about a couple of months ago, a friend of mine was passing through the wee car park in my local town/village, and found a wee pup that had been dumped and was running lose. After managing to catch her, she was in some state, covered in her own piss and shit, lots of fur loss, stained skin/coat and really scared. Hard to tell her age because of her condition, but she was obviously a young pup, maybe 3 months, and obviously had some running dog in her. His guess at the time was collie/grey. He brought her up to clean her up and get some bits and bobs (he doesn't have any dogs), and i looked at her head and feet and said i was pretty sure she was at least collie/grey with a bit of bull, but maybe a lot more bull than a bit. Vet said. . . . no no, collie/grey or whippet/grey. Anyway, been looking after her for him on and off, and taking her out a bit, and my mate has done a great job putting her back together physically and mentally and i think she will be a decent wee dog. Still not sure what is in her. . . . but it looks like i was right about the bull Bit on the small side tho, something like 21/22 inch, but then age is something we are not sure of. He popped up today and i managed to take a couple of not great photos with my phone So any guesses on how much of what out of interest? id say bull/wippet/collie greyhound. got a similar stamp to my bitch, 21 half inch to shoulder Quote Link to post

I take my hat off to you for looking after the pup, it balances out the person who abandoned it . Well done, and fair play to you , and your mate. Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted May 5, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2011 Aye as far as i'm aware she still has her milkies, as big as they are Cheers for all the kind comments. I was f*****g raging when my mate first brought her round, she was in such a state. No idea who would treat like shit and then dump a pup so young, who hasn't had the chance to do anything wrong. I'm just glad now that she has fallen on her feet, is well looked after and loved, and will even get to have a crack at a working life, but with no pressure Quote Link to post
TOMO 26,070 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 why does evry one think theres whippet in there?? cant see it myself,,, mind you does it matter, not realy. if it still has some milkys then you know how old it is Quote Link to post
skycat 6,173 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 I do like a story with a happy ending. :thumbs: Looking at her good tight feet I'd say there would be Collie in there somewhere, but who knows, I've seen Whippets with feet like cats. Though if there is Whippet in there it is hard to see. Maybe she's got all of the already mentioned breeds in her, who cares. She's a nice looking dog with a broad, intelligent head and she's got a good home, that's all that counts. Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted May 6, 2011 Report Share Posted May 6, 2011 Sounds like we need to find her previous owner, cover him in piss and shit and then tie him up naked in the busiest pub car park we can find, preferably one witha gravel car park that is well used by the max power muppet brigade doing wheel spins....
